Episode 459 – Gods and Callbacks

We have now seen all the Gods of Amonkhet, and they’re pretty neat. We’ve also got a few stand out cards that will be powerful in various formats, like Harsh Mentor. We’ve got a few completely bizarre cards that will hopefully snatch a few games for people. We’ve also got a new and possibly improved Krosan Tusker, a new Desert, a fixed Unstable Mutation, and Fling. What is going on here?

Also, some discussion about the story of Amonkhet and beard oil. Not at the same time though. That would just be weird. Buh.

In response to the harsh mentor question about how it stops the cat combo, it doesn’t stop the combo but kills the controller by doing 2 damage every time a saheeli uses it’s loyalty ability as its an activated ability so in 10 copies or less if the controller isn’t paying attention.
Love the work you guys do it’s great listening from the beginning at work and chuckling while welding and brewing some jank decks to play at my local fnm.
